Hi, i have been contacted (letter) by some dept company asking for an unpaid mobile phone bill which is from 5yrs ago and cant remember the actual phone contract terms, but what i remember is talking to the phone company.. 3 and disputing the balance at a time for i never thought i owed them anything. that was the last contact i had with them regarding that particular contract and haven't heard anything about that since until now..

are they still entitled to chase me up for this and what can i do? don't think i owe them anything.

    They are entitled to chase you for up to 6 years.
    What you 'think' and 'thougt' doesn't matter.
    What really matters is whether your really owe them and whether they can prove this.

    If you don't think you owe anything, tell them to prove the debt, or !!!!!! off.
